THE WHY

Vivobarefoot exists to reconnect people with nature through regenerative business, natural movement and barefoot footwear. We are the world’s leading barefoot footwear brand and are evolving from a footwear company into a broader movement focused on natural health, human potential and regenerative living.

As we enter our next phase of growth, we are seeking an exceptional Chief Digital Officer to lead the commercial, digital and technology architecture of the business globally.

Sitting on the Executive Team, the CDO will be accountable for building the technology, data, customer and ecommerce capabilities required to scale Vivobarefoot globally creating a world-class digital operating system that enables regional teams to execute while maintaining global standards, performance and scalability.

ALL ABOUT YOU

We are looking for a rare combination of commercial leader, technology leader, customer obsessive, builder and strategic thinker.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
